Flozell Adams fined $50,000

A source confirmed that the Cowboys left tackle was fined $50,000 by the NFL for his hit on New York’s Justin Tuck. That means Adams has now been fined $75,000 since the start of the season.

Jordan Woy was informed of the fine Tuesday night. The agent for Adams said he would likely appeal the NFL’s ruling. Woy and Adams have appealed the player’s previous three fines and are awaiting a response.

Adams knocked Tuck to the ground with a shove to the back as the first half ended in Sunday’s loss to the Giants. The personal foul penalty on Adams nearly set off a melee before the teams left the field for the locker room.

Adams had already been fined $25,000 by the league this season. The breakdown: $5,000 for unnecessary roughness against Tampa Bay in the season opener, $12,500 for a trip on Tuck and an attempted trip of Osi Umenyiora in the first meeting against the Giants and $7,500 for kicking Carolina’s Julius Peppers.
